Abstract

We report a time-resolved near-field luminescence study of excitonic real-space transfer into single GaAs quantum wires. Excitons generated by local optical excitation in a 250 nm spot undergo diffusive transport over a length of several microns and are subsequently trapped into the quantum wire by optical phonon emission. Local energy barriers in the vicinity of the quantum wire, originating from the epitaxial growth mechanism of the nanostructure, directly influence the real-space transfer dynamics and trapping efficiency.
